Hello All,
My 1950s 8n is in trouble. I didn't notice a leak in the radiator and left the tractor running for 20 mins - It was still running when I came back but water vapor was coming out of the engine. It
obviously overheated and I now have a crack in the block behind the oil filter plate (pics attached). As far as I can tell oil is not mixing with water. Is this fixable? The crack seems to expand close
to the head gasket - not sure if I should pull the head. I've read in a few places that JB weld could do the trick. I appreciate any advice/feedback.
